Susan Williams believes that life is never about the destination and always about the journey. She also feels that to companion one along the journey, helping to empower the individual(s) to access their own strengths and inner knowing, is one of the highest of honors. This perspective fosters her passion for mental health advocacy and awareness.
Susan has a diverse and extensive background in the arts and education. She has experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families. She is an adoptee and through this lived experience approaches the counseling and healing process in a creative way, exploring and utilizing one’s thoughts, behaviors, sensory, physical, and spiritual experiences to uncover and integrate deeper awareness. Therapeutically, Susan applies person centered, strength-based, narrative, and systems’ techniques.
